ObjectiveTo study the effect of allo-human bone marrow mesenchymal stemcells (bMSCs) on the secretion of interleukin(IL)-1, tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α and transforming grouth factor (TGF)-β of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in vitro. MethodsBMSCs were isolated from bone marrow of healthy volunteers and purified by density gradient centrifugation and cultured in vitro. The mononuclear cells from the peripheral blood of patients with RA and healthy controls were isolated respectively.bMSCs and mononuclear cells were co-cultured in vitro and the density of IL-1, TNF-α and TGF-β3 in the co-culture system were detected by ELISA. ANOVA and Pearson correlation were used for statistical analysis.ResultsMononuclear cells from peripheral blood of patients with RA were co-cultured with bMSCs for seven days. There were an decreased density ofIL-1[(38.4±0.5) vs(6.2±1.0) ng/L], TNF-α[(29.4±1.3) vs (4.6±1.2) ng/L]and an increased density of TGF-β[(2.6±1.0) vs (22.5±2.2) ng/L]in the co-culture system (P<0.05). But on the other hand, for healthy volunteers there were no significant change in the density of IL1[(4.4±1.1) ng/L]and TNF-α[(5.0±1.7) ng/L]in the coculture group, as compared with the mononuclear cell group[(4.4±1.3) vs(5.3±1.7) ng/L](P>0.05). There was an increased density of TGF-β in the coculture system[(4.8±1.4) vs(10.5±1.2) ng/L](P<0.05). IL-1 was positively correlated to TNF-αt (r=0.896,P=0.000), TNF-β1 was nagative correlation with 1L-1 and TNF-α (r=-0.356,P=0.019; r=-0.380,P=0.000).ConclusionHuman bone marrow MSCs have modulatory effects on main cytokines of patients with RA in vitro. bMSCs could down-regulate the levels of IL-1 and TNF, but up-regulate the density of TGF-β. These immune-modulatory effects are not MHC restricted. The results of this study have provided evidence for the development of effective therapy for RA.

Objective To investigate the treatment and clinical outcomes in developmental dislocation of the hip in chil?dren above 8 years old. Methods We retrospectively reviewed the results of operation treatment for developmental dislocation of the hip in 94 children (112 hips) from 2006 to 2012. The age of the patients ranged from 8.2 to 13.6 years at the time of treatment, with an average age 9.8 years. In 94 patients, there are 18 males and 76 females. The patients were classified into three group based on the age at time of operation:Group 8-9 years old, Group 10-11 years old, Group 12-13 years old. The dislocation of hip was classified by T?nnis classification system:gradeⅡ34 hips, gradeⅢ29 hips, gradeⅣ49 hips. Surgery was performed in all the patients. The procedures consisted of open reduction of the hip, capsulorraphy, shortening and derotational osteotomy of proxi?mal femur, and acetabular osteotomy which include Pemberton osteotomy (66 hips), Salter osteotomy (30 hips), Ganz osteotomy (3 hips), Triple osteotomy (5 hips) and Chiari osteotomy (8 hips). McKay and Severin modified criteria were used to assess the func?tion and radiographic results of the hip. Results The average follow?up was 2.3 years ranged from 1 to 7 years. According to McKay modified criteria at final follow?up, 75 hips (67%) had excellent (22 hips) and good (53 hips) clinical results, 32 hips (29%) were fair and 5 hips (4%) were poor. According to the Severin criteria, the outcomes of T?nnis grade Ⅳgroup was significantly worse than T?nnis gradeⅡ,Ⅲgroup. There is no significant differences between T?nnisⅡandⅢtype groups. If the patients were classified by age at time of operation, the function of group 8-9 years old was significantly better than others group according to the McKay criteria; the group 12-13 years old was significantly worse than others group according to Severin criteria. Conclu?sion Open reduction with proximal femoral osteotomy and acetabular osteotomy was an effective procedure for the treatment of developmental dislocation of the hip in children above 8 years old. The surgical results were related to the age at time of treatment and T?nnis classification system; low dislocation (T?nnis Ⅱ, Ⅲ) and young age (younger than 10 years old) had better function and radiographic results compared with high dislocation (T?nnisⅣ) and elder age group.

Objective To compare the efficacy,toxicity and prognosis on treating advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) between using weekly docetaxel (DOC) and using DOC associated with nedaplatin(NDP).Methods 56 cases of NSCLC patients were retrospectively analyzed.Group A included 34 cases who were treated with weekly DOC (35 mg/m2,dl,8).Group B included 22 cases who were treated with DOC associated with NDP (DOC 35 mg/m2,dl,8,NDP 80 mg/m2,d2).One treatment cycle was 21 days.Efficacy,toxicity and prognosis were evaluated after 2 treatment cycles.Results RR of group A was 8.8 % (3/34).RR of group B was 27.3 % (6/22).DCR of group A was 50.0 % (17/34).DCR of group B was 63.6 % (14/22).PFS of group A was 2.3 months.PFS of group B was 5.1 months.OS of group A was 8.7 months.OS of group B was 10.5 months.1-year survival rate of group A was 26.5 %.1-year survival rate of group B was 31.8 %.The above comparisons were not statistically different (all P > 0.05).In adverse reactions,hematologic toxicity in group B was greater than that in group A (x2 =4.877,P =0.027).Other adverse reactions such as gastrointestinal reactions,fatigue and so on were grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ.Conclusions The treatment of weekly DOC used in advanced NSCLC is safe,effective an low toxicity.There are no significant difference of RR and PFS between single DOC and DOC associated with NDP.

Stroke is an important public health problem both in China and worldwide.Stroke genetics research has made great progress in recent years, especially the genome-wide association study (GWAS) and the emergence of epigenetics, has brought a breakthrough in this field. They studied the pathogenesis of stroke from the genetic level and the environmental factor levels. Although there are still many problems to be solved, the prospect of stroke genetics is bright.

Objective The objective was to discussing the difference between the Pemberton osteotomy and Salter osteot?omy which performed in patients between the ages of 2 and 3 years who suffered from developmental dislocation of the hip (DDH). Methods A retrospective review of the results of operation treatment for DDH in 59 children (84 hips) from January 1998 to De?cember 2008 was conducted. There are 10 boys (14 hips) and 49 girls (70 hips). The age of the patients was between 2-3 years old at the time of treatment 2.5±0.4 years. Surgery consist of open reduction of the hip, capsulorraphy, shortening and derotational oste?otomy of proximal femur, and innominate osteotomy which include Pemberton osteotomy (33 hips), Salter osteotomy (51 hips). McKay and Severin modified criteria were used to assess the function and radiographic results of the hip. Results The average follow?up time was 5.6±3.5 years ranging from 2 to 16 years. According to Severin criteria at final follow?up, 78 hips (93%) had ex?cellent and good results;4 hips were fair and 2 hips poor result. The radiology results in Salter osteotomy were better than Pember?ton osteotomy (rate of excellent and good results 100%vs. 82%,χ2=7.43, P=0.003). According to the McKay criteria Salter osteoto?my and Pemberton osteotomy have no significant difference in latest follow?up (the satisfactory rate 100%vs. 97%,χ2=1.56, P=0.39). 18 hips (21%) had proximal femoral growth disturbance which 10 hips in Pemberton group, 8 hips in Salter group. There is no significant difference (χ2=2.54, P=0.17). Conclusion Open reduction, innominate osteotomy and proximal femoral osteotomy were effective procedures for the treatment of DDH in children between 2-3 years old. More attention should be taken in Pember?ton osteotomy to prevent the acetabular bony edge absorption.

Objective:To investigate the therapeutic effect of carbon dioxide laser tonsillectomy.Method:In this prospective,randomized study, One hundred and two patients were divided into laser group or control group. Patients of laser group were cured with carbon dioxide laser tonsillectom,and the control group was cured with routine method. All operations are executed by one person. Observation index included operation time, hemorrhage in operation, ache after operation, inflammatory reaction of raw surface, repair time of raw surface, rehaemorrhagia and scar.Result:Laser group had advantages of less operation time, less hemorrhage, less ache and less inflammatory reaction of raw surface. Laser group have hemorrhage in operation (7.2±2.1)ml, while control group have hemorrhage in operation (92.0±35.0)ml. Laser group have pseudomembrane early but desquamate late.Conclusion:Carbon dioxide laser tonsillectomy is effective to relieve pain, inflammatory reaction and with less time ,it's an safe , efficient and mini-trauma operation.
